- Lübben Punt Station
Wheelchairs Ahoy! All aboard the Spreewald Punt
How about a trip on a Spreewald punt to discover the unique lagoon landscape at the heart of the State of Brandenburg? A punt specially built for visitors with restricted mobility, which from the outside is no different from the other Spreewald punts, gives you plenty of space and security. The electric scissor lift used brings not only electric wheel chairs but also prams and rollators safely on board. The ferryman is familiar with the special features of chauffeuring and can quell any fears that may beset disabled passengers who have up to now not been able to experience the Spreewald from this perspective.
